Another alien movie, male strippers
Is it just me or have there been a lot of extra terrestrial themed movies this summer? Unlike “Men in Black” tho or “Prometheus”, “The Watch” is far from clever or even that entertaining. There are definitely lots of funny moments but the movie itself is badly written and is just plain lame. The only thing that saves this otherwise stupid movie is the casting. Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade equally provide a plethora of good one liners.
The plot of this movie(if you can call it that) is pretty much as the title suggests. Residents of a small town in Ohio form a Neighbourhood watch when one of their fellow community members is violently murdered. They soon learn that they are dealing with much more than a cold blooded killer. The town has been infiltrated by cold blooded aliens.
If you feel the need to waste ten bucks, or if you just crave some cheap laughs, go check out “The Watch.”
1.5/5
